Dancing from your heart, There's no better place to start. Dancing is an art, But you
have to dance your part.
Whether the music is soft or loud, If you know exactly how,
You will be dancing on the clouds.

"It's what I've always wanted to do, to show the laughter, the fun, the joy of dance." ~Martha Graham

Not Sure of a Title...

I can't think of a title at the moment. I don't want to update on dance right now. Do you ever notice that a lot of times, You don't realize how much you love someone until they're gone? First, my old tap teacher, I was never "close" to her, and then the day came when she told us that she wasn't gonna teach anymore, I didn't realize that I loved her so much until I went home crying.

Now one of the best youth leaders (at church) is leaving the staff. Youth Group is probably (for me) the hardest part of middle school, because I don't have a lot of friends there due to the fact that I always have dance during the "bonding" activities. Even though my dad is a deacon, and my mom used to be on staff as the elementary coordinator at church, most the leaders and kids don't even know my name. This one leader, was one of the few people who knew my name. I never talked to her that much, or really knew her that well, but I think that just the fact that she knew my name made a difference to me.

Hi guys!
My name is Jasmine. I'm 13 years old and I'm going into 8th grade! I LOVE to dance! I am currently attending dance at FSPA (Franklin School of Performing Arts.)
We are on Summer Break right now, but in the fall, I will be taking Ballet,Tap, Modern, and Jazz. I have been taking ballet for 11 years, Tap for 7 years, Modern for 5 years, pointe for 3 years, and Jazz for 2 years. I'm also in the Performance Company. Which means I get to dance with my company group at Fairs and Festivals around town. You have to audition to get in, and take Ballet, Modern, and Jazz. I also will be assisting 2 Creative Movement classes, and Tap 1. This is my 4th year assisting Creative Movement, but my first year with Tap 1! I'm so excited to get to learn more teaching methods!!
Please enjoy my blog!

About This Blog

I love to dance, and when I got into the whole blogging thing, I immediately knew I wanted a blog about dance. Dancing on Clouds was originally called On Your Toes, and was made in Spring 2010, with a partner. Later that partner got to busy, and I got bored with the name. Dancing on clouds is my own "Journal" about dance. I tell of all my dreams and where my heart (and feet!) take me. It takes a special person to want to read about my love of dance, because often times it is confusing. So I wanted to be able to tell people about my passion, by letting them choose what they wanted to know. And I enjoy posting, even if nobody reads my posts. The name Dancing on Clouds came from my passion of not just going to class and do what the teacher says, but going into my bonus room when I'm home alone, and being able to dance from my heart. I truly believe that dancing on clouds is where talented dancers really begin. Please enjoy my blog (sorry about my confusing ballet spellings and descriptions.)

Dance,by Mary Carolyn Davies

God is in me when I dance.
God, making Spring
Out of his thoughts
And building worlds
By wishing.
God
Laughing at his own
Queer fancies
And sobbing;
Musing;
Dreaming;
Throbbing;
Commanding;
Creating-
God is in me
When I dance.
